What Is The Story You’re Telling Yourself? | Episode 26

Listen on:  Apple Podcasts |Spotify| Radio Republic | YouTube | PlayerFM | Stitcher | iHeartRadio

The stories you tell yourself aren’t always true. These stories are called limiting beliefs. They are FALSE!

When I hear creatives say:

“I’m not a numbers person”

“I’m creative, not a business owner type”

“Stress and overwhelm are a normal part of this creative shop owner life”

“I don’t have time to plan”

‘I’m not good at the biz stuff”

I make it my goal to help them bust through these myths that are holding them back in their own creative businesses. Let’s flip the script!

If you change this story and hone your business skills you CAN realize more profits. But you have to overcome the limiting beliefs you’re telling yourself. Sign up for the Retailer’s Inner Circle where you’ll have access to Retail Made Simple now so you can switch the story you’re telling yourself as a biz owner. Those stories should be “I can do it” and “I am good at the biz stuff.”

Big big hint: There’s a direct line from your business growth with what you invest in yourself and do for your personal growth and development. Take that step to get better!

 

About your host, Wendy Batten

In case we haven’t met yet, I’m Wendy, a small business coach and founder of the Retailer’s Inner Circle, where I help other independent shop owners learn how to gain the right business skillsets to see more profits, paychecks, and joy as they navigate running their retail business. 

Through online classes, business coaching programs, speaking, and a top-ranked podcast, I’ve helped hundreds of retailers around the globe reclaim their dreams and see the success they want from their beautiful shops. My signature private coaching community, The Retailer’s Inner Circle, has helped retailers around the world build their retail business skill sets and confidence. 

I am proud to have been featured in several major publications, including my own business column in What Women Create magazine. I have been privileged to be a guest on top-ranked podcasts and sought-after as a guest speaker and teacher for several brands, associations, and communities that are passionate about the success of independent retailers.

When I’m not coaching, you will find me either DIYing and renovating my very imperfect old crooked cottage by the sea in the UNESCO World Heritage town of Lunenburg, NS, or blogging about our travel and RVing adventures and the weird fun things we get up to in our coastal village. I’d love to invite you to check out one of my free resources for real retailers at https://wendybatten.com/free-resources/
